| Hi All, Has anyone ever built and/or photographed a minifig scale DeathStar. Thanks in Advance. Mike McLeod Terrigal, NSW Australia (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) I've built a Death Star before, but it's no where NEAR minifig scale size. If you think about it for a second, the Death Star was the size of a small moon. Now, if you scaled that down to minifig scale, the Death Star, to be accurate, would be (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) The interesting thing is, that ASCII rendition of the Death Star(s) is actually more suggestive of the following: A) The head of IG-88 B) The head of Nomad (from the ST:TOS episode)--or was it some other robot I'm thinking of...? Anyways, a (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| Naw... I think IG-88 would look something more like __ | | |::| | p| | | __ or something like that... I am not a master at ASCII art. I suggest we give bonus point to the person that figures out how many 2x4 bricks, laid, end to end, it would take (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| Just to combine two similar elements, has anyone ever built a mini/micro/nano scale super star destroyer. I saw the Japanese Lego show star destroyer, but I haven't seen anyone go after the super star destroyer yet. Anyone seen one? Matt (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Well, let's see... that'd be about 491,490 studs, which is about 122,873 2x4 bricks laid end to end (+/- a few, cuz at that level, even lego's tolerances will be off by a bit) But by my calculations, a minifig scale death star would only be a (...)

| (...) Just to give you an order of size and brick required. I did some calculation to build Khafre's pyramid. At minifig scale it would take 240,000 2x4 bricks; at technicfig scale you would need 1,080,000 2x6 bricks. And your pyramid would be (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Well first, Which Death Star? The first which is 160km in diameter or the second which is roughly 500km in diameter. (I know half of the 'offical' sources state the 1st as being 120km and the second as 160km but those were arbitrary numbers (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Yes I made one. It was made for the benifit of the newsgroup alt.startrek.vs.starwars Now keep in mind it is really just a skeletal form to show scale but there are several other Star Wars and Star Trek ship their done to scale including a (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)
